Description

本発明は、水、ガス、油等の配管用途に適用される金属めっき鋼管の製造方法および装置に係り、より詳しくは鋼管を溶融金属めっき浴中に浸漬し引揚げて鋼管の内外面に金属めっきを施す方法および装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a method and an apparatus for manufacturing a metal-plated steel pipe applied to piping applications such as water, gas, and oil. Regarding the method and equipment for applying plating.

金属めっき鋼管、例えば亜鉛めっき鋼管は、前処理(脱脂、酸洗および化成処理)を施された鋼管を溶融亜鉛めっき浴に一定時間浸漬して製造する。その後、該めっき浴から引揚げた鋼管の内外面に空気または蒸気を吹き付けて、鋼管に過剰に付着した溶融亜鉛を吹き飛ばし、溶融亜鉛のたれを切った後、該鋼管は水冷槽に浸漬され冷却処理が施される。従来から溶融亜鉛めっき浴内から引揚げられた鋼管の内外面の余剰亜鉛を除去する方法については品質を確保しつつ効率的な方法が数多く提案されている。 Metal-plated steel pipes, for example, zinc-plated steel pipes, are manufactured by immersing pretreated steel pipes (defatting, pickling and chemical conversion treatment) in a hot-dip galvanized bath for a certain period of time. Then, air or steam is blown onto the inner and outer surfaces of the steel pipe lifted from the plating bath to blow off the molten zinc excessively adhering to the steel pipe, and after cutting the hot-dip zinc dripping, the steel pipe is immersed in a water cooling tank and cooled. Processing is applied. Conventionally, many efficient methods have been proposed for removing excess zinc on the inner and outer surfaces of steel pipes pulled up from the hot-dip galvanizing bath while ensuring quality.

例えば、特許文献1には、引揚げ中の鋼管が外面ブロー装置内を通過する間に、該鋼管内にマンドレル棒を貫通させ、噴射ノズルから圧縮ガスを噴射して鋼管内面の余剰亜鉛を鋼管外に吹き出す方法で、めっき厚さを均一にすることができる技術が開示されている。 For example, in Patent Document 1, while the steel pipe being lifted passes through the outer surface blower, the mandrel rod is passed through the steel pipe, and the compressed gas is injected from the injection nozzle to remove the excess zinc on the inner surface of the steel pipe. A technique is disclosed in which the plating thickness can be made uniform by a method of blowing out.

また、特許文献2に開示の技術では、製造コスト低減の観点から、鋼管を溶融亜鉛浴中に浸漬した後、溶融亜鉛浴中から鋼管を長手方向に引揚げる過程で圧縮ガスにより鋼管外面の余剰亜鉛を除去し、続いて圧縮ガスにより鋼管内面の余剰亜鉛を除去する方法において、溶融亜鉛浴を低温に設定し、該溶融亜鉛浴中から鋼管を長手方向に引揚げる過程で圧縮ガスにより鋼管外面の余剰亜鉛を除去した後、当該鋼管を前記溶融亜鉛浴温度より高温に加熱し、圧縮ガスにより鋼管内面余剰亜鉛を除去する方法が提案されている。 Further, in the technique disclosed in Patent Document 2, from the viewpoint of reducing the manufacturing cost, after the steel pipe is immersed in the molten zinc bath, the excess of the outer surface of the steel pipe is generated by the compressed gas in the process of pulling the steel pipe from the molten zinc bath in the longitudinal direction. In the method of removing zinc and then removing excess zinc on the inner surface of the steel pipe with compressed gas, the molten zinc bath is set to a low temperature, and the outer surface of the steel pipe is pulled up from the molten zinc bath in the longitudinal direction by the compressed gas. A method has been proposed in which the steel pipe is heated to a temperature higher than the molten zinc bath temperature after the excess zinc is removed, and the excess zinc on the inner surface of the steel pipe is removed by a compressed gas.

更に、生産性向上の観点から特許文献3には、鋼管を100~600℃に予熱した後、430~480℃の溶融金属めっき浴中に20~100秒浸漬してめっきを施し、次いで、溶融亜鉛めっき浴中のめっき鋼管を引揚げ、めっき鋼管の外面めっき付着量を制御する方法が開示されている。鋼管を予熱することでめっき槽内の浴温維持に必要な熱量を低減できるとしている。 Further, from the viewpoint of improving productivity, Patent Document 3 describes that a steel pipe is preheated to 100 to 600 ° C., then immersed in a hot-dip metal plating bath at 430 to 480 ° C. for 20 to 100 seconds for plating, and then melted. A method of pulling up a plated steel pipe in a galvanized bath and controlling the amount of external plating adhered to the plated steel pipe is disclosed. By preheating the steel pipe, the amount of heat required to maintain the bath temperature in the plating tank can be reduced.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. The present invention is not limited to this, and the present invention can be appropriately modified and carried out without changing the gist thereof.
As an example of the outline of the processing process in the present invention, FIG. 1 shows a manufacturing flow of a hot-dip galvanized steel pipe. The steel pipe is subjected to degreasing, pickling, and chemical conversion treatment in the pretreatment step, and then dried and immersed in a zinc plating bath in a plating tank of a hot-dip galvanizing apparatus for a certain period of time. Next, the steel pipe is lifted from the plating bath, and when it is lifted, air or steam is blown onto the inner and outer surfaces of the steel pipe to remove the excessively adhered molten zinc and adjust the plating adhesion amount. After that, the steel pipe is cooled in a cooling tank. Finally, the galvanized steel pipe will be inspected before shipping. Here, a zinc-plated steel tube is shown as an example, but as molten metal plating, molten zinc or molten aluminum, 5% aluminum-zinc plating as a molten zinc alloy, 55% aluminum-zinc plating as a molten aluminum alloy, etc. , Molten zinc-aluminum alloy is exemplified, and the molten metal may contain unavoidable impurities in addition to magnesium, silicon, and iron.

本発明の一実施形態を示す鋼管の溶融金属めっき装置の上面図およびA-A’視側面図をそれぞれ図2および3に示す。また、図4に図2および図3に示す溶融金属めっき装置のB-B’視底面図であって、(a)鋼管2をスクリューの螺旋面に載荷している状態の拡大図、および、(b)鋼管2を引揚げ装置5の位置に払い出した後のスクリュー近傍の拡大図で示す。また、図6に引揚げ装置近傍の図4(b)のC-C’視拡大正面図を示す。図2~4および図6に基づいて、本発明の方法を説明する。前処理後の鋼管2は、めっき槽1のボトム側からトップ側に搬送され、回転軸31に螺旋面32を有するスクリュー3の螺旋面32に載架される。図2では、溶融金属めっき装置は鋼管2を同時に2本ずつめっき槽1内に水平・下降搬送できる装置の例を示している。鋼管2はセンターガイド6とサイドガイド9によりスクリュー3の螺旋面32から外れないように支持されている。 The top view and the AA'view side view of the molten metal plating apparatus for a steel pipe showing an embodiment of the present invention are shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, respectively. Further, FIG. 4 is a bottom view of BB'of the molten metal plating apparatus shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, in which (a) an enlarged view of a state in which the steel pipe 2 is loaded on the spiral surface of the screw, and (B) An enlarged view of the vicinity of the screw after the steel pipe 2 is dispensed to the position of the lifting device 5 is shown. Further, FIG. 6 shows a CC'enlarged front view of FIG. 4 (b) in the vicinity of the lifting device. The method of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 to 4 and FIG. The pretreated steel pipe 2 is conveyed from the bottom side to the top side of the plating tank 1 and mounted on the spiral surface 32 of the screw 3 having the spiral surface 32 on the rotating shaft 31. FIG. 2 shows an example of a molten metal plating apparatus capable of horizontally and descending two steel pipes 2 into a plating tank 1 at the same time. The steel pipe 2 is supported by the center guide 6 and the side guide 9 so as not to come off from the spiral surface 32 of the screw 3.

鋼管2は同期して回転している複数のスクリュー3の回転によって、めっき槽1下部に下降搬送され、めっき槽1内の溶融金属めっき浴Zに浸漬されて溶融金属めっき処理が施される。下降搬送の際に鋼管2は、図3に示すように、トップ側(先端)が低く、ボトム側(尾端)が高く傾斜してスクリュー3に保持されて、めっき浴Zに浸漬中、鋼管2内の空気を排気することができる。図3では鋼管2の先端側が先にめっき浴に浸漬する例を示しているが、尾端側が先にめっき浴に浸漬しても差し支えない。鋼管2はスクリュー3の回転によって下降するだけでなく、払出し位置を固定するために、スキッドプレート8により、めっき槽内での浸漬位置を固定されている。 The steel pipe 2 is carried down to the lower part of the plating tank 1 by the rotation of the plurality of screws 3 rotating in synchronization, and is immersed in the molten metal plating bath Z in the plating tank 1 to be subjected to the molten metal plating treatment. As shown in FIG. 3, the steel pipe 2 is held by the screw 3 with a low top side (tip) and a high bottom side (tail end) during downward transportation, and the steel pipe 2 is immersed in the plating bath Z while being immersed in the steel pipe. The air in 2 can be exhausted. Although FIG. 3 shows an example in which the tip end side of the steel pipe 2 is immersed in the plating bath first, the tail end side may be immersed in the plating bath first. The steel pipe 2 is not only lowered by the rotation of the screw 3, but also the dipping position in the plating tank is fixed by the skid plate 8 in order to fix the dispensing position.

スクリュー3の回転によりめっき槽1内の下部にまで下降搬送された鋼管2は、螺旋面終端部11、12に到達後、クレードル4に着地する。その後、鋼管2は、スクリュー3の回転軸31に設置してある払出し装置10により、引揚げ装置5の方向(図2の払出し方向)に順次払い出される。払出装置10が回転軸31の周りに回転することで鋼管2を引揚げ装置5側に押し出す。本発明のように、スクリュー3の回転軸31の螺旋面終端部11、12に、鋼管2を引揚げ装置5へ払い出す払出し装置10を設置することで鋼管2のめっき浴Z内への浸漬と払出しを1つの装置で行うことが可能となりメンテナンス性の面でも優位であり、好ましい。 The steel pipe 2 lowered and conveyed to the lower part in the plating tank 1 by the rotation of the screw 3 reaches the helicoid end portions 11 and 12 and then lands on the cradle 4. After that, the steel pipe 2 is sequentially dispensed in the direction of the lifting device 5 (the payout direction in FIG. 2) by the payout device 10 installed on the rotating shaft 31 of the screw 3. The payout device 10 rotates around the rotating shaft 31 to push the steel pipe 2 toward the lifting device 5. As in the present invention, by installing a payout device 10 for discharging the steel pipe 2 to the lifting device 5 at the spiral surface end portions 11 and 12 of the rotary shaft 31 of the screw 3, the steel pipe 2 is immersed in the plating bath Z. It is possible to perform the payout with one device, which is advantageous in terms of maintainability, which is preferable.

払い出された鋼管2は、複数の引揚げ装置5の支持部51に載った後、支持部51が上昇することでめっき浴Zから引揚げられる。引揚げの際は、複数の引揚げ装置5の支持部51に載荷されて、鋼管2は傾斜しており、鋼管内の溶融金属の排出が容易になっている。 The discharged steel pipe 2 is lifted from the plating bath Z by being placed on the support portions 51 of the plurality of lifting devices 5 and then raised by the support portions 51. At the time of salvage, the steel pipe 2 is tilted by being loaded on the support portions 51 of the plurality of salvage devices 5, so that the molten metal in the steel pipe can be easily discharged.

図2および3に示す溶融金属めっき装置において、スクリュー3の本数は鋼管1本に対して、水平搬送方向(鋼管の長手方向)に3本設置されている。鋼管2の姿勢の安定のためには、少なくとも2本のスクリュー3が必要であるが、2本の場合、めっき浴Z投入直後の、下降搬送する鋼管2の姿勢が不安定となる可能性が高いこと、および、鋼管2が撓んで鋼管内空気の十分な排気ができないおそれがあるため、3本以上設置するのが望ましい。 In the molten metal plating apparatus shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, three screws 3 are installed in the horizontal transport direction (longitudinal direction of the steel pipe) with respect to one steel pipe. At least two screws 3 are required to stabilize the posture of the steel pipe 2, but in the case of two screws, the posture of the steel pipe 2 to be carried down immediately after the plating bath Z is charged may become unstable. It is desirable to install three or more pipes because it is expensive and the steel pipe 2 may bend and the air inside the steel pipe may not be sufficiently exhausted.

発明者らは、溶融金属めっき装置内スクリュー3の螺旋面下端11、12に設置した払出し装置10を回転させて、クレードル上の鋼管2を引揚げ装置5側へ払い出す際に、引揚げ装置5の引揚げ開始時期について払出し装置10の回転角度の鋼管の引揚げ不良への影響を調査した。 The inventors rotate the payout device 10 installed at the lower ends 11 and 12 of the spiral surface of the screw 3 in the molten metal plating device, and when paying out the steel pipe 2 on the cradle to the pulling device 5 side, the lifting device. Regarding the start time of withdrawal of No. 5, the influence of the rotation angle of the payout device 10 on the withdrawal failure of the steel pipe was investigated.

払出しの際の払出し装置10の回転角度θは図4(b)に示すように鋼管2が払出し装置10から引揚げ装置側へ払い出される際に、鋼管の長手方向と直交する角度をθ=0°とし、引揚げ装置の回転進行方向13を正と定義した。図5に一例として、鋼管径50Aにおける払出し装置10の回転角度θとめっき鋼管の引揚げ不良発生率の関係を示す。引揚げ不良発生率は、鋼管の亜鉛めっき処理を施した際に亜鉛めっき装置から引き揚げられた鋼管について、めっき槽内で発生した曲がり、キズ、引揚げトラブルなどの発生本数についてカウントし、総処理本数に対する割合で算出した。引揚げ開始タイミングが払出し装置10の回転角度θで-45°以下の場合には、鋼管2の払い出し量が不十分のため引揚げ装置の支持部51にうまく載荷されない状態が頻発してしまい引揚げ不良発生率が非常に高くなってしまう。一方、引揚げ開始タイミングが払出し装置10の回転角度θで70°超えの場合、払出し装置10が引揚げ装置から離れていく回転によって、めっき浴に流動が発生し、引揚げ装置側へ払い出された鋼管が、引揚げ開始までの間にスクリュー側に移動してしまったり、または鋼管のみかけ比重が低い場合には引揚げ中に支持部51から外れてしまったりする現象がある確率で発生してしまうため、引揚げ不良発生率が高くなってしまう。図5から、払出し装置10の回転角度θが、-45°超え70°未満の範囲にあるときに、引揚げ装置を上昇開始させることが好ましいことがわかる。ここで、なお、より不良率を低減させるためには、払出し装置10の回転角度θを-20°超え25°未満の範囲とすることが望ましい。 The rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10 at the time of payout is an angle orthogonal to the longitudinal direction of the steel pipe 2 when the steel pipe 2 is paid out from the payout device 10 to the lifting device 5 side as shown in FIG. 4 (b). θ A = 0 °, and the rotation traveling direction 13 of the lifting device 5 was defined as positive. As an example, FIG. 5 shows the relationship between the rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10 and the rate of occurrence of repatriation defects of the plated steel pipe 2 at a steel pipe diameter of 50 A. The withdrawal defect occurrence rate is counted for the number of bends, scratches, withdrawal troubles, etc. that occur in the plating tank 1 for the steel pipe 2 that was withdrawn from the zinc plating apparatus when the steel pipe 2 was galvanized. , Calculated as a ratio to the total number of processed pieces. When the withdrawal start timing is −45 ° or less at the rotation angle θ A of the withdrawal device 10 , the amount of the steel pipe 2 withdrawn is insufficient and the load is often not properly loaded on the support portion 51 of the withdrawal device. The rate of poor withdrawal will be very high. On the other hand, when the withdrawal start timing exceeds 70 ° at the rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10 , a flow is generated in the plating bath Z due to the rotation of the payout device 10 away from the withdrawal device 5 , and the withdrawal device 5 Phenomenon that the steel pipe 2 discharged to the side moves to the screw side before the start of withdrawal, or if the apparent specific gravity of the steel pipe is low, it comes off from the support portion 51 during withdrawal. Since it occurs with a certain probability, the rate of defective withdrawal increases. From FIG. 5, it can be seen that it is preferable to start the lifting device 5 ascending when the rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10 is in the range of more than −45 ° and less than 70 °. Here, in order to further reduce the defect rate, it is desirable that the rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10 is in the range of more than −20 ° and less than 25 °.

以上の結果から、引揚げ装置5の引揚げ開始時期は、払出し装置10によって払い出された鋼管2が所定位置に到達する以降であって、かつ、前記鋼管2から離れていく払出し装置10の回転によるめっき浴の流動に伴い前記鋼管の位置が不安定になる以前である必要がある。「鋼管が所定位置に到達」とは、鋼管2が引揚げ可能な状態になったことを意味する。図6に示すような、クレードルの形状が、スクリュー直下から引揚げ装置側に向かう傾斜部41、鋼管の一時待機部42、山部43および引揚げ装置5の支持部51に一致する位置決め部44からなる場合には、払い出された鋼管2が少なくとも山部43の頂点を通過した後に、引揚げ装置の上昇を開始する必要がある。そうしないと、引揚げ装置の引揚げ時に、支持部51上には、鋼管が載らないおそれがある。また、「鋼管の位置が不安定になる」とは、一旦、クレードル上の引揚げ位置に払い出された鋼管が、例えば、鋼管から離れていく払出し装置10の運動によって引き起こされるめっき浴内の流動により、引揚げ位置から移動してしまい、引揚げ装置の引揚げ開始時に支持部51に載荷されない場合や、支持部51に載荷された鋼管が上昇中に揺動して、支持部51から外れてしまうような場合が挙げられる。 From the above results, the withdrawal start time of the withdrawal device 5 is after the steel pipe 2 dispensed by the payout device 10 reaches a predetermined position, and the payout device 10 moves away from the steel pipe 2. It is necessary before the position of the steel pipe 2 becomes unstable due to the flow of the plating bath due to rotation. "The steel pipe reaches a predetermined position" means that the steel pipe 2 is in a state where it can be lifted. As shown in FIG. 6, the shape of the cradle 4 is positioned to match the inclined portion 41 from directly below the screw toward the lifting device 5 , the temporary standby portion 42 of the steel pipe, the mountain portion 43 , and the supporting portion 51 of the lifting device 5. In the case of the portion 44 , it is necessary to start the ascending of the lifting device 5 after the discharged steel pipe 2 has passed at least the apex of the mountain portion 43 . Otherwise, the steel pipe 2 may not be placed on the support portion 51 when the lifting device 5 is lifted. Further, "the position of the steel pipe becomes unstable" means that the steel pipe 2 once discharged to the lifted position on the cradle 4 is plated, for example, caused by the movement of the dispensing device 10 moving away from the steel pipe 2 . Due to the flow in the bath Z , it moves from the lifting position and is not loaded on the support portion 51 at the start of lifting of the lifting device 5 , or the steel pipe 2 loaded on the support portion 51 swings while rising. Therefore, there is a case where the support portion 51 is detached from the support portion 51.

次に、発明者らは、払出し装置10の配置・形状影響について確認した。図6に示すように、払出し装置10の高さ方向上端部からクレードル4上の鋼管2下端部までの高さの差をhとし、鋼管2の直径をDとして、鋼管2がクレードル4上で最も高い位置(頂部43)にある場合のh/Dと引揚げ不良発生率の関係を確認した。図7に一例として、鋼管径50Aにおけるh/Dと引揚げ不良発生率の関係を示す。図7から明らかなように、h/Dが0.4以下の場合には引揚げ不良発生率が悪化している。この理由として、払出し装置10が鋼管の正しい位置に接触せず、鋼管が引揚げ装置側へ押し出されなかったためと推定される。以上の結果から、h/D>0.4とする必要がある。なお、h/Dの上限は特に定めないが、払出し装置10の側面が鋼管に接触すれば十分であり、あまりに大きくh/Dをとると、払出し装置10が大きくなりすぎるので、1.0程度で十分である。 Next, the inventors confirmed the influence of the arrangement and shape of the payout device 10 . As shown in FIG. 6, the difference in height from the upper end of the payout device 10 in the height direction to the lower end of the steel pipe 2 on the cradle 4 is h, the diameter of the steel pipe 2 is D, and the steel pipe 2 is on the cradle 4. We confirmed the relationship between h / D and the rate of poor salvage when the product is at the highest position (top 43). As an example, FIG. 7 shows the relationship between h / D and the rate of occurrence of repatriation defects at a steel pipe diameter of 50 A. As is clear from FIG. 7, when the h / D is 0.4 or less, the rate of defective repatriation deteriorates. It is presumed that the reason for this is that the payout device 10 did not come into contact with the correct position of the steel pipe 2 and the steel pipe 2 was not pushed out to the lifting device 5 side. From the above results, it is necessary to set h / D> 0.4. Although the upper limit of h / D is not particularly set, it is sufficient if the side surface of the payout device 10 comes into contact with the steel pipe 2 , and if the h / D is taken too large, the payout device 10 becomes too large. Degree is enough.

本発明の好適な実施形態にかかる装置の構成は、溶融金属めっき浴Zを構成するめっき槽1と、該溶融金属めっき浴Z中に鋼管2を下降搬送し、浸漬させるために、回転軸31に螺旋面32を有するスクリュー3と、該スクリュー3の螺旋面終端部11、12を通過した前記鋼管2を一旦受け止めるためのクレードル4と、前記回転軸31の螺旋面終端部に設けられた前記鋼管2の払出し装置10と、該払出し装置10によって払い出された前記クレードル4上の前記鋼管2を引揚げるための引揚げ装置5とからなり、前記払出し装置10の回転角度θに同期して、引揚げ装置5の上昇を制御する機構を有する溶融金属めっき装置である。 The apparatus according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention comprises a plating tank 1 constituting a molten metal plating bath Z and a rotary shaft 31 for lowering and transporting a steel tube 2 into the molten metal plating bath Z and immersing the steel pipe 2 in the hot metal plating bath Z. A screw 3 having a helicoid surface 32, a cradle 4 for temporarily receiving the steel pipe 2 that has passed through the helicoid end portions 11 and 12 of the screw 3, and the spiral surface end portion of the rotating shaft 31. It is composed of a payout device 10 of the steel pipe 2 and a lifting device 5 for pulling up the steel pipe 2 on the cradle 4 paid out by the payout device 10, and is synchronized with the rotation angle θ A of the payout device 10. This is a molten metal plating device having a mechanism for controlling the ascent of the lifting device 5.

引揚げ装置の上昇を制御する装置は、払出し装置10の回転角度θAが所定の範囲にあるときに鋼管の引き上げを開始するように設定されていることが好ましい。なお、払出し装置10の回転角度θAが、-45°超え70°未満の範囲にあるときに前記引揚げ装置を上昇開始させることがより好ましく、払出し装置10の回転角度θAを-20°超え25°未満の範囲とすることがさらに好ましい。理由は、上述に基づく。 It is preferable that the device for controlling the ascent of the lifting device 5 is set to start the pulling of the steel pipe 2 when the rotation angle θA of the payout device 10 is within a predetermined range. It is more preferable to start ascending the lifting device 5 when the rotation angle θA of the payout device 10 is in the range of more than −45 ° and less than 70 °, and the rotation angle θA of the payout device 10 exceeds −20 °. It is more preferably in the range of less than 25 °. The reason is based on the above.

また、スクリューの螺旋面終端部を通過した前記鋼管を一旦受け止めるクレードルには、図6に示すように鋼管が転がって移動する傾斜部41、該鋼管の一時待機部42、山部43および該鋼管を引揚げるための位置決め部44を有し、この順にスクリュー3直下から引揚げ装置5の位置まで配置されていることが好ましい。そして、払出装置10の上端は、前記クレードル4の前記山部43頂点より上にあり、その高さの差h(m)は、払い出す前記鋼管2の直径D(m)との比、h/Dを0.4より大きくするように配置していることが好ましい。理由は上述に基づく。 Further, in the cradle that temporarily receives the steel pipe that has passed through the end of the spiral surface of the screw, as shown in FIG. 6, the inclined portion 41 in which the steel pipe rolls and moves, the temporary standby portion 42 of the steel pipe, the mountain portion 43, and the steel pipe. It is preferable that the positioning portion 44 for lifting the pipe is provided, and the positioning portion 44 is arranged in this order from directly below the screw 3 to the position of the lifting device 5. The upper end of the payout device 10 is above the apex 43 of the mountain portion of the cradle 4, and the difference in height h (m) is the ratio h (m) to the diameter D (m) of the steel pipe 2 to be paid out. It is preferable that the / D is arranged so as to be larger than 0.4. The reason is based on the above.

図2や3では、一例として金属めっき装置内に設置したスクリューの配置を2列の場合について記載しているが、鋼管のサイズによっては1列の場合や2列以上設置することも可能であり、スクリューの配置列数については特に限定しない。 In FIGS. 2 and 3, the arrangement of the screws installed in the metal plating apparatus is described as an example in the case of two rows, but depending on the size of the steel pipe, it is possible to install one row or two or more rows. , The number of rows of screws is not particularly limited.

なお、本発明の方法は、素管として、鍛接鋼管や溶接鋼管に好適に適用できる。鍛接鋼管とは、鋼帯素材、例えば熱延鋼帯全体を加熱後、熱間で成形し、シーム部は鍛接によって接合してパイプに成形した鋼管をいう。溶接鋼管とは、いわゆる、電縫鋼管であり、鋼帯素材、例えば熱延鋼帯を成形機で管状に成形し,高周波溶接機でシームの高速溶接を行うものである。 The method of the present invention can be suitably applied to forge welded steel pipes and welded steel pipes as raw pipes. The forge-welded steel pipe refers to a steel pipe formed into a pipe by heating a steel strip material, for example, the entire hot-rolled steel strip, and then hot-forming the seam portion by forge welding. The welded steel pipe is a so-called electric resistance pipe, in which a steel strip material, for example, a hot-rolled steel strip is formed into a tubular shape by a molding machine, and a seam is welded at high speed by a high-frequency welder.

Here, the steel pipe diameter D is in the range of 30A to 200A, and the height difference h between the upper end of the lifting device and the top of the cradle peak and the ratio h / D to the steel pipe diameter D is 0.2 to 0.9. The range was set. The rate of failure in withdrawal is calculated by counting the number of bends, scratches, and withdrawal troubles that occur in the plating tank for the steel pipes that have been withdrawn from the zinc plating equipment when the steel pipes have been galvanized. Calculated as a ratio to the number.
